Nicolas Grospierre (born 1975). Architectural photographer and artist, grew up in France, has lived in Poland since 1999. Before taking up photography, he studied political science and sociology in Paris and London. In his work, he uses photography as a creative tool. He focuses on both documentary projects and conceptual issues. In works of a reportage nature, he often takes up the theme of collective memory and hopes associated with modernist architecture ? he reaches for it at a time when the utopias accompanying this style have lost their power and importance. The conceptual part of his work is based on building a game played with the viewer, into which the viewer is invited through attractive ? even sensual ? images and installations.
